Non-GAAP Disclosure Statement

This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Conversion, which reflect adjustments for certain items that affect the comparability of our underlying operational performance.

Adjusted EPS is defined as net income adjusted for acquisition-related amortization expense of certain acquired intangibles, accrual for legal and regulatory matters related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident, gain on sale of an equity investment, foreign currency impact of certain intercompany loans, acquisition-related costs other than acquisition amortization, income tax effect of stock awards recognized upon vesting or settlement, Argentina highly inflationary foreign currency adjustment, realignment of resources and other costs, antitrust litigation costs and an accrual for a legal settlement

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income attributable to Equifax plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and also excludes certain one-time items.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income adjusted for certain one-time items.

Free Cash Flow is defined as the cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Cash Conversion is defined as the ratio of Free Cash Flow to adjusted net income.

Local currency is calculated by conforming the current period results to the comparable prior period exchange rates. Local currency can be presented for numerous GAAP measures, but is most commonly used by management to analyze operating revenue without the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

These non-GAAP measures are detailed in reconciliation tables which are included with our earnings release and are also posted at https://www.equifax.com under "Investor Relations/Financial Results/Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
